Note: This product has been discontinued. Technical Guidance ends July 15th 2018.

Pivotal provides the following system administration tools free for your use to support Application Fabric products.

Chef Cookbooks

Chef is a systems management tool used to streamline the task of configuring and deploying a company’s servers and applications in a physical, virtual, or cloud location. Cookbooks define scenarios such as application installation and configuration, and contain the components required to support that scenario.

Homebrew Formulas

Homebrew is the “missing package manager” for Mac OS X. Pivotal provides Homebrew formulas for developers who want to install and play with our commercial software on their development machines, and is not intended for commercial use.

Puppet Modules

Puppet automates repetitive tasks and gives system administrators a flexible framework to build on. Puppet consists of a configuration language to write modules, daemons to run the Puppet instructions on managed systems to deploy and configure applications, and a dashboard to help visualize your systems and create reports.

Pivotal provides Puppet modules to simplify the installation of Pivotal products. You can use the modules individually or in groups.
